Growth and production of milkfish (Chanos chanos) in brackishwater ponds: effects of dietary protein and feeding levels
(Elsevier, 1995)
The most economical combination of dietary protein and feeding levels for milkfish culture in brackishwater ponds was determined. Milkfish juveniles (average weight, 5 g) were stocked at 7000/ ha and fed two diets containing ...
Growth and reproductive performance of the Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther) fed artificial diets
(Blackwell Publishing, 1997)
Four natural ingredient diets similar in nutrient composition (crude protein = 42–44%; P/E ratio = 115–120 mg/kcal) but different in protein sources, were formulated and fed to hatchery-reared catfish to measure the relative ...
Growth and food consumption of milkfish (Chanos chanos) during dry and wet seasons
(Serials Publications, 1994)
This study was conducted to evaluate the quality of the food consumed by the fish, to estimate the food consumption of the fish in the natural environment during the wet and dry seasons, and to determine the relationship ...
Isolation, cDNA cloning, and growth promoting activity of rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus) growth hormone
(Elsevier, 2000)
We report the isolation, cDNA cloning, and growth promoting activity of rabbitfish (Siganus guttatus; Teleostei; Perciformes; Siganidae) growth hormone (GH). Rabbitfish GH was extracted from pituitary glands under alkaline ...
Identification and characterization of vitellin in a hermaphrodite shrimp, Pandalus kessleri
(Elsevier, 1989)
1. A female specific protein (FSP, vitellogenin) in hemolymph and its related ovarian protein (vitellin) of Pandalus kessleri were studied by means of electrophoretical and immunological procedures.
2. The vitellin was ...
Measures of egg quality in induced spawns of the Asian sea bass, Lates calcarifer Bloch
(Springer Verlag, 2000)
The egg morphometry and lipid and protein components were determined in induced spawns (n = 14) of the sea bass, Lates calcarifer, to identify measures of egg quality. Based on fertilization and hatching rates, the spawns ...
Growth and yield of Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (Gunther) fed different grow-out diets
(The Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology (SIAMB), 2003)
Juveniles of the Asian catfish Clarias macrocephalus (3.6±0.17 g; 78.0±0.09 mm) were fed one of four diets: a laboratory-formulated diet of 18.9% (Diet 1) or 34.2% (Diet 2) protein, a com- mercial feed pellet of 28.9% ...
Effect of dehulling on the nutritive value of some leguminous seeds as protein sources for tiger prawn, Penaeus monodon, juveniles
(Elsevier, 1991)
Feeding experiments were conducted to evaluate the effect of dehulling on the nutritive value of cowpea and rice bean as protein sources for P. monodon juveniles. Diets were prepared by adding legumes to replace 15.6% of ...
Evaluation of plant proteins as partial replacement for animal proteins in diets for Penaeus indicus and P. merguiensis juveniles
(Society of Israeli Aquaculture and Marine Biotechnology, 2002)
The growth rate and survival of two white shrimps, Penaeus indicus and P. merguiensis, fed diets in which fishmeal was partially replaced with plant protein sources were investigated in three trials. In trial 1 with P. ...
Evaluation of processed meat solubles as replacement for fish meal in diet for juvenile grouper Epinephelus coioides (Hamilton)
(Blackwell Publishing, 2001)
Feeding experiments were conducted to determine the efficacy of low fish-meal-based diets for juvenile grouper Epinephelus coioides (Hamilton). A diet containing 44% protein was formulated using fish meal as the major ...
